Contract Law: Can I Sue My Client for Breach of Contract

My question involves business law in the state of: OHIO/TENNESSEE

I do video production out of my home in Ohio. I've had a contract with a church in Tennessee to provide monthly episodes of a program they send me which I edit and return to them. The contract states they have to offer me X amount of work each month guaranteed in exchange for discounted rates. We've had this agreement going on five years now.

The contract length is a period of two years at a time and it clearly states they must give me 90 days notice if they intend not to renew each time (so I can make other arrangements to replace this income without having it jerked out from under me at the last minute). The contract came up for renewal this past January, at which time they did not inform me they wished to not re-up for another two-year period (quite the opposite in fact, as they seemed very enthusiastic about the future).

However, this past May (after my monthly paycheck did not arrive) they called to state they were dropping me and would not be paying me anymore. When I explained we still had a binding contract that had already auto renewed (they usually sign a new paper contract after each one expires, however this time they did not) they told me to just take them to court. They supposedly spoke with their lawyer and believe they are not legally bound to our agreement any longer since they didn't sign anything again this last round. To cover me end, I've continued sending them edited videos since then without pay to ensure I'm holding up my end of the contract and can't be seen as being in breach either.

I have two questions. First, are they right? I thought I had covered against this kind of thing in the verbiage about giving me notice. I'm not sure if I legally can sue them for the remaining balance (which the contract outlines will fall due if the terms are ever breached). Second, since I'm in Ohio and they are in Tennessee, where should my lawyer be located? Should I hire someone up here or down there (as I'm not sure which court system would handle it).

Any guidance would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Assault & Battery: How Can I Get My Record Changed to What the Judge Ordered

My question involves criminal law for the state of: Virginia
15 years ago I was charged with A& B after the two counter filed on me. What the real problem is- the judge said for me to pay a fine, stay away from the individuals, unsupervised probation for 1 year, and if I comply- the charges will be dismissed. I did all that and 15 years later I apply for a job and my finger printed criminal recorded the charge as guilty. I called the court system where it happened, the clerk said they purge their criminal records after 10 years. I called the lawyer who represented me, he gets rid of everything after 5 years. I need to get this changed to the deferred disposition, just as the Judge ordered but I have nothing to show that the Judge actually said it will be dismissed after the terms have been met. What do I do??? This job is important to me and I cannot get any help from the clerks as to retrieving my warrant so I can't resolve this matter...please help me!! I should not have been charged being that one of the individuals stated that they saw me and just decided to start punching me. (I was starting to sit in my car to leave and they came out of nowhere) before I could get my second foot in the door of my car, they started hitting me. All I did was kick them away from and off me and then closed my car door. I drove straight to the police station. Days later, I was being finger printed because they filed counter charges. Unbelievably, my attorney disregarded their go-hard testimonies and didn't help at all. Accountability was on my mind being that I did kick them off of me. SOOO technically I did assault them as well. So I agreed to the terms and thought it would be dismissed as the Judge said and never was told to follow-up, come back, or anything. I truly thought the charges were dismissed

Foreclosure: Charged-Off Heloc, Not Sure What to Do

My question involves a mortgage in the state of: Iowa

Let me start by giving a timeline. I think this will help keep things in order...

• - Nov 2005: Purchased home, Citimortgage is the lender
• - Early 2006: Obtained HELOC, Citibank is the lender
• - July 2008: Filed Bankruptcy. Reaffirmed 1st mortgage w/Citimortgage. Offered to reaffirm 2nd mortgage, but Citibank never responded, so it never happened. Moved forward with HELOC not reaffirmed.
• - Sept 2010: Lost job. Next 4 years were hit and miss employment and sporadic self-employment.
• - August 2013: HELOC charged-off, behind in payments. Didn't know this until June 2015. They probably did send notification and I somehow missed it.
• - January 2014: New job. Still there.
• - June 2014: 1st mortgage w/Citimortgage foreclosed. (Still catching up bills, etc.)
• - July 2014: Begin some plan w/Citimortgage with 3 months worth of trial payments to see if I qualify for a new/restructured mortgage.
• - Oct 2014: Successfully complete trial payment plan, and sign new mortgage papers w/Citimortgage. Fast-forward to today and payments have been on time and are current.
• - Jan 2015: 1st Mortgage assigned to be serviced by Green Tree (not relevant here, I don't think, but included anyway)

Ok, the 1st mortgage is current and fine. It is the 2nd mortgage, or the HELOC, that I am worried about. I stopped getting statements in Sept 2013, but still made sporadic payments and just sent them in. They always cashed them. When I inquired earlier this year why I didn't get a tax statement for interest for 2014 they informed me that the HELOC had been charged off and when. I have not made any payments since I found out it has been charged-off, as I feel in limbo about it.

I don't know where to go from here. I'd like to know what my legal status is.

I did some research, and according to what I read at Nolo Press, if I understand this correctly, because the 1st mortgage was foreclosed (and I am under a new mortgage now), the HELOC was also automatically released as a security and my home no longer has that lien against it. I still owe the money, I understand that, and that's fine, but now it is unsecured debt. Is this correct?

I'm not concerned about the monetary debt right now. I can address that in due time. My question right now is to make sure I don't have to worry about losing the house because the HELOC has been charged-off. I feel that if my research and interpretations are correct, I can relax a bit and not feel like a hammer is going to come down on my head any moment.

Thanks for listening.

Medical Malpractice: Psychiatrist Made False Bipolar "Diagnosis" Contrary to Dsm Criteria

My question involves medical malpractice in the state of: Michigan.

Earlier this year, a psychiatrist issued upon me a "diagnosis" of Bipolar-I, even though the DSM-5 criteria were not even close to being met! And he did so without asking me any relevant questions and without an intake evaluation by a psychiatrist.

I sought out a second psychiatrist, but he refused to "second-guess" the first.

Now, I'm not actually planning on pursuing a malpractice suit, since doing so is incredibly difficult and almost never succeeds (especially with psychiatry). But I emphatically wish to see that bogus "diagnosis" retracted and purged from all my records.

What options do I have?

Chapter 7: How to Identify Unknown Creditors for a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

After running a 3 credit check from the Big 3, I only show some debt. I know that there is over 50K in hospital debt with many account numbers from many departments. However when I contact the hospital, they refuse to tell me where the other bills went or who has them now. I have only been able to find around 11K of it from the hopital directly. So my question is, If I file for bankruptcy without listing the 50K medical debt will it still be found and removed? If not, how can I force cooperation with my debt information?

Thanks in advance for everyone taking the time to view this and answer.

Speeding Tickets: 3 Violations Need to Go to Officer's

My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: Indiana

I was stopped by an out of town officer. He told me he was working in this jurisdiction as part of an impaired driver "crackdown" program.

He initially told me that he stopped me (his attention was attracted) because my exhaust pipe was throwing up sparks (mufflers had fallen off and I had to tie the tailpipe to keep it from dragging). He wanted to see all my information and looked through a bottle of prescription pills in my purse, questioning me on why they were cut into pieces (legal prescription with split pills to save $$). It was a very "weird" traffic stop.

I received a ticket citing me for 44/30 (he did not mention speed until the end, when he was giving the ticket), driving without muffler(s) and no (proof of) financial responsibility. I was insured and can verify that.

I just learned that I am expected to go to the Court from which the officer works. I learned that officers may write tickets even out of their "formal" jurisdiction, but I expected that Court proceedings would be held where the infraction(s) occurred.


My question:


IN Code 33-33-7-8 states :The "X county" superior court has the following jurisdiction:
(1) Original, appellate, concurrent, and coextensive jurisdiction with the circuit court in all civil cases, criminal cases, and probate matters.
(2) Concurrent and coextensive jurisdiction with the circuit court in all cases of appeal from boards of county commissioners and all other appellate jurisdiction vested in the circuit court.
(3) Concurrent and coextensive jurisdiction in all matters of probate and the settlement of decedents' estates, trusts, and guardianships.
(4) Jurisdiction in all other subject matters actionable in the circuit court.
(5) Original exclusive jurisdiction of all violations of ordinances of cities located in the county.
(6) Original exclusive jurisdiction in the trial of offenses constituting violation of traffic ordinances of the cities and violations of traffic laws of the state that occur in any city of "X" County.
(7) Original jurisdiction of violations of traffic laws of the state that occur outside a city in "X" County.

Why am I therefore being required to handle this through the city court from which the officer works (which, yes, is in this county) when the alleged infractions took place here? Can I therefore just challenge that court's jurisdiction or am I lacking information?

Hearings and Trials: Do Lower Courts Have to Follow Orders of a State's Supreme Court

My question involves traffic court in the State of: South Carolina

The South Carolina Supreme Court issued an order which basically stated that the summary courts (Magistrates and Municipal) MUST dispose of jury trials (including traffic jury trials) within 120 days of filing. (http://ift.tt/1Fe2Qnm).

Basically, this is four months. It took them seven and a half months to schedule my trial. When I received the summons, I submitted a motion for discovery, which the clerk said I had to give to the police department. The police department said they had 30 business days to provide the discovery which I would need in a week and a half. I wrote up a request for continuance, which the judge said that she would not grant. A few days later, I submitted a motion to dismiss for lack of speedy trial and included the order (stated above) as an attachment. The muni judge ignored the motion, then continued the case at the last minute on oral request of the prosecutor, which is against court rules here in South Carolina. (All motions for continuance must be in writing.)

If the judges won't follow state supreme court orders and won't follow their own court rules, that is evidence that we, as pro per litigants, have NO chance of a fair and impartial hearing.

What can I do?

State Taxes: Do States Offer Foreign Earned Income Exclusions

My question involves tax law for the state of: North Carolina and Ohio

I'm currently a student in Ohio who has kept my permanent residence in North Carolina for the duration of my stay (I vote in NC, I pay income taxes to NC, my driver's license says NC, I don't have a car registered in OH, etc.). However, starting from the middle of October or so, I will be in Luxembourg working on my doctorate for about three years. Because of when I'm leaving, I figured I should get all of my income tax stuff in order to avoid any nasty tax headaches come April.

The big question in my planning, though, is this: do Ohio and NC recognize the foreign earned income exclusion that the federal government does? My research suggests yes, but I don't want to make a costly mistake in assuming that such is the case.

Premises Liability: Who is Liable for an Exposed High Voltage Line in My Creek

My question involves an injury that occurred in the state of: IL.

So I have conduit going through/across my creek. Inside the conduit is a high voltage transmission line, this is how it's written and platted on my deed.







I know the obvious thing to do is report it to the power provider. However, this is very reckless and irresponsible in my opinion. I do not feel confident disclosing it to them. I know the power provider has been there in the last year. Also, there is a new white flag labeled "Proposed Facility" less than 5 yards from the conduit.

Do I have any kind of upper hand here?

Thanks for everyone's thoughts!

Criminal Records: Went to Court, No Charges, Should I Pay Civil Demand

My question involves criminal records for the state of: NJ

A couple years ago I was called into the office at my retail job by loss prevention. They had records of me changing the prices of clothing to buy. I signed a paper to the company apologizing for it and they did not tell me what else would happen. A few days later i was arrested at my other job in the same mall and i was brought to the local police station. I was charged with minor shoplifting (or something like that) It was under $150. I got a public defender and after 3 times in court, no loss prevention or anyone else from the company showed up. So the case was dropped. I was sent letters to pay around for the clothing that I had changed the pricing for. I paid 1 payment of $25 but stopped after that. this was alms 3 years ago. They haven't sent me letters or anything until a random phone call I received today but did not answer.
Does anyone think this means I'm being sued?
Or are they just randomly harassing me for money?
Im scared to pay if it is a civil demand because I don't want to go on my record for future jobs.

Traffic Court Issues: Court Supervision Ended Over a Year Ago, Still Have Not Heard from Courthouse

My question involves traffic court in the State of: IL

I was ticketed on June 25, 2014. I was given an option to go to the county's website, download a form to request court supervision through the mail.

I filled out the form and sent it to the county along with a money order.

Today- I still have no license and still driving on the ticket. I have not heard ANYTHING from the county about the issue.

Is it my responsibility to go to the courthouse to ask about the ticket? I am not too enthusiastic about going to the courthouse, I am worried that I may get upset.
You know- trying to apply logic and reason.

Thanks Everyone!

Question: In Colorado (or any state for interest sake), can a person sue a driver of another car that is violating a traffic law? Or is the only possible action to report the violation to the police?

Sales Agreements: If the Dealership Collected the Wrong Tax Do I Owe the Difference

My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: CT/NY

I live in CT and purchased a car in NY. It was a pretty terrible experience.

After my temp plates expired, I called the dealership to find out why I had no plates or registration yet. Once I was able to actually get ahold of them, they responded that they collected the wrong sales tax of 6% and that it was supposed to be 7.85%. They said CT does not update them very fast on tax changes and that I would need to pay the difference.

CT sales tax was 6% in 2010 or something. It's now 6.35% and cars over 50k are 7.85% or something. They made a dumb mistake, did not notify me about it, I had to contact them after my temp expired, and then they lied about why it happened.

Now they have my plates and registration and want me to come up with another $1000 to pay them.

Do I owe them this money? I have a fully executed contract. I even apparently payed them $75 for this terrible service. They have my license plates and registration.

They have threatened legal or collections action.

Expenses: Ex Just Sent Me 2 Years Worth of Medical Expenses

My question involves child support in the State of: MO

Hi,

My Ex just sent me two years worth of medical expenses and extracurricuar expenses stating she wants payment.

I agree there is a good portion that I owe, but don't have $3000 to hand her right away so need to make payments.

The Decree does not give any timeframe for her to advise me of these expenses or for me to repay them. Will I avoid being in contempt if I send her payments each month towards these expenses? Are these any pitfalls I should be aware of?

She also wants me to reimburse her for half of the childrens school supplies which add up to over $300. Does this seem right?

Paraphernalia: What Happens to Pending Drug Trials Once a State Legalizes Marijuana

My question involves criminal law for the state of: Ohio

SHORT VERSION:
I was stopped by a police officer for not displaying a front license plate. Officer asked why I was reaching between the seats while he was following me and asked to search the car. I declined. Officer called another car, claimed to smell marijuana and searched the car. They found a small marijuana pipe , a small metal herb grinder, and a pouch of tobacco with rolling papers. I was ticketed for no front plate, paraphernalia, and possession of less than 100g. If marijuana is legalized in Ohio before my trial can I ask the judge to dismiss the possession/paraphernalia charges, and if so how?

LONG VERSION:
I was driving my mother in law to the doctor one morning when a city police officer started following me on the freeway. After about a mile they turned on the lights and I pulled over. I am driving my brother's car and thankfully he has all of the registration and insurance forms in the glovebox. Officer informs me that he pulled me over for not displaying a front plate. I inform him that I am driving my brother's car, and hand over my license, insurance, and registration.

My mother in law, who speaks very little English, is visiting from Mexico for a medical procedure. About 10 years ago she was severely beaten by police officers in Mexico and still gets very upset around officers. She is in the passenger seat asking me, in Spanish, what is happening. Officer asks for her ID. While she looks for her passport he asks why I kept reaching between the seats while he was behind me. I pointed out that I drive a stick shift car. He then asks if he can search the car. I decline, hand over my mother in law's passport, and he returns to his car.

About 5 minutes later another officer pulls up. The first officer returns to my car and claims that he can smell marijuana in the car and asks me if I have been smoking. I inform the officer that I don't smoke marijuana. Second officer approaches the car and first officer asks me to step out. I am patted down and then placed in the back of a police car. Officer 2 escorts my mother in law out of the car, and she is visibly upset. He begins to question her, but she clearly doesn't understand his questions.

Officer 1 proceeds to search the car. After about 10 minutes he finds a small metal marijuana pipe, the size and color of a cigarette, between the cushions of the back seat of the car. In the spare tire compartment he finds a small metal marijuana grinder (about the circumference of a Kennedy half dollar and maybe an inch tall.

Officer 2 begins questioning my mother in law about these specific items. She doesn't understand what they are. Officer 1 returns with a small pouch of tobacco and rolling papers that was in the passenger side door pocket. He asks me where the rest of the drugs are, and offers to release me then and there if I assist with his investigation. I refuse, he reads my Miranda rights, processes the evidence, and issues me citations for no front plate, paraphernalia, and possession of less than 100g of marijuana, and released.

I plan to plead not guilty to all of the drug charges. The plates, well, not much grey area there, right? But is it worth waiting to see if marijuana is legalized in Ohio in the coming election? I imagine that I could delay a trial until after the election. Obviously not my defense strategy, but I imagine that courts have seen a fair amount of this situation with legalization laws happening in various states. How would I get the case dismissed in that event? Are there any other defenses that I might build in this case? I'm 38 and have a spotless record.

Thanks, and I'll try to keep posted as the struggle happens.

Probate Court Procedure: New to Wills and How They're Carried Out

My question involves estate proceedings in the state of: Virginia

I know absolutely nothing about wills as I've never been named in a will and don't have the need for one, yet. I have a few questions because I am getting confused about what I've been reading online.

How long after a death does it take for people to find out if they've been named or get something in a will? What is the procedure for this?

If a person was made an executor a long time ago, wouldn't they have been told or been given paperwork at the time they were made executor?

If a person was made an executor and then later removed, would they be officially notified somehow?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Relocation: Moving with Sole Custody

My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Virginia

I have sole custody of my daughter with my ex-husband having visitation every other weekend. I am planning on moving out of state in about 6 months and do not know what I need to do with the courts for this. I also need to know if he can stop me from doing this. I have already moved once since the divorce became final but it was only 15 minutes away so I just sent a written notification to the courts and to my ex. Is this sufficient for an out of state move that will affect his visitation or is there a more involved process?

Establishing an Order: How to Get Request That I Pay Child Support Through the Court

My question involves child support in the State of: NY

My wife and I are separated and I have been giving her money every month to support our child.

She wouldn't agree to anything custody-wise with me, everything is her way or no way. So I filed for joint custody, that is ongoing and only in the beginning stages, I doubt it will be decided for a while. In the meantime I don't want to play tug of war with our kid so i am leaving the arrangement she dictated as is for now.

Because of the of the arrangement, mom does have our kid the majority of the time so I am giving her money for support, but it is NOT through a court order, but morally and for our child I know I need to provide financially. The thing is she is asking for X amount, which is above what I can afford from my income.

I have been giving her the amount shes asked for for about a year and a half, this was mostly from savings but now that has dried up. I live paycheck to paycheck, and now I have fallen behind on the X amount shes asked for. Also in addition to the money I have been giving her I also do provide for daily expenses during the school year. It is not like i only give money and feel my job is done.

I have no problem paying support for our child but the amount I have been paying is above what I would be required to pay from a court order, as it is not 17% of my income, it is more like 35%. I believe the standard 17% in our state is fair, but i'm pretty sure she would not agree to this without going to court. I wish we had done things through the court to begin with but I can't turn back time.

If I do file for a court order support on myself, well, is that even possible? I would like everything to be legally in place as it could come directly out of my paycheck and there would be no issue of what I owe her.

Would I look like a complete a-hole for requesting that the support be court ordered? When I have brought it up to her she basically says I am a terrible dad who needs a judge to tell me to pay my kid. But I just want everything to be legal and fair. Will the custody judge think the same as she is thinking?

Also would we need to settle custody first before the child support can be determined?

My issue is that if we do have to wait for custody to be determined, and I am giving her a payment lower than what she wants, she will have a fit and create more drama between us and possibly not let me see our kid as she has done so in the past when she gets angry at me.

If it is possible for me to request that I pay child support to her at the state's standard through the court, which form would pertain to that? These are the forms available through the court website, I have linked the one I *think* I should be using, but I am not positive. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Custody and Visitation Issues: Ncp Violating Visitation

My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Georgia
Aside from not picking the children up on time, a day late, or even not at all sometimes, the father has taken it upon himself to get someone to drop the children home at 10pm (4 hrs late) after I told him it was to late. His drop days are on Sunday which is a school night. on top of this action he kept the children's ADHD medication which causes an issue for them at school. these things have been going on for the past year that we have been divorced. I have been extremely amicable up until this point. Between these issues and other issues (ie. The girls being returned with bacterial infections) it has become increasingly tiring and very concerning. Please help. Is there anything that I can do? Contempt? Modification?

Legal Malpractice: Attorney Did Not Showed for Court

My question involves medical malpractice in the state of: California


A few months ago we got served with a 60 day eviction notice in which we hired an attorney to represent us since the reason was unjustifiable. The reason was due to my parents divorce for the eviction, my mother hired a criminal law attorney. I am not sure what he did but he convinced her that he can handle the case which he charged her $3,000. She negotiated to pay 50% at the time and the other 50% after the case was handled. On a Saturday the attorney wanted to talk personally regarding to give her testimonial of the case in which we came to find out that the appointment was not for the testimonial in which in reality was for the attorney to charge my mom for the other half of the fee. We were not able to make it since the attorney had to do some personal business with his family,the next day he texted my mom saying that he was going to request an extension since he had two criminal cases in another city. Little that we know he sent out a court attorney representative (not an actual attorney)in which she was not up to speed with the case, did not have any documents of the case, and as well was sent out at the last minute. We had to explain to the representative about the case in which she requested an extension which was denied by the judge since the case was considered a high priority for unlawful detainee. The plaintiff attorney told the judge that he was not aware of our attorney wanting to request an extension since no courtesy call was made to request an extension outside of court and as well no message was left. At the end the representative was making the settlement terms in which we were satisfied but the attorney that we hired did not do anything to handle the case in which after the case he kept charging us for the other 50% of the fee. Can we sue this attorney and report him to the state bar board for this malpractice since he does have a history in which once his license was suspended due to driving under intoxication, punching someone in the face, and as well having a suspended license? What are the chances of winning and getting him reprimanded with the state bar?

Legal Malpractice: Attorney Did Not Showed for Court

Personal Investment: Personal Loan Contract

My question involves personal finance in the State of: California


In the past I have made personal loans to relatives, friends, and friends of friends. Have to say that I have been lucky that 90% of the time I get repaid in the full amount, at the time they asked for a loan from me I made them signed a paper indicating that they received a personal loan from me in which outlines on how much money they received, expected date of repayment, and the date it was received with signature. I also request to give me a copy a valid driver license and social security. There were some occasions in where I was not able to recover my money due to lack of security deposit (signed car title, property title, or payroll check stubs). In those transactions I did not specify in the contract that they had to repay me back the full amount with 15% fee in which majority were made in installment payments. I was told by a legal source that I cannot get in trouble for lending money with interest rates since the borrower agreed to my terms and conditions. Is this statement is true? Since I have lost some money in the past (just the loan with no interest) I generate my own personal contract in which I ensure the terms are outlined asking the borrower to give a security deposit (signed auto loan, signed house loan [no lien or hold in neither loan], jewelry with specific outlined and valued by a jeweler, personal electronics that must exceed more than the loan asked). Is that legal to do? If so what can I do to improve the terms of the contract as posted below?

Interstate Issues: Texas Interstate Child Support Enforcement

My question involves child support in the State of Texas. This is an interstate case. The receiving party is in Florida. A temporary order was issued followed by a permanent order in 2010. The temp order was at a higher amount. Florida has me in arrears for several thousand dollars and refuses to update their record stating they do not have the new order 2010. This issue has been ongoing for five years. I and my attorney have been at the local office and on the phone constantly. Texas says they send it but Florida never receives it. Florida has taken enforcement action i.e. Taken my tax returns and put a hold on my passport. I recently learned this while trying to renew my passport. I work internationally and cannot anymore without my passport. Neither side will coordinate with each other and just get it done. I have never been late and all payments are up to date.
What can I do to get this cleared up. I filed a complaint with the Texas OAG and

Heirs and Beneficiaries: Usufruct Probate.i Hope Someone Here is an Expert on This. Several

I'm new......not trolling or anything. Just need answers from people who know. So......

Here is the scenario.

A wife dies back in 1989 (26 years ago) , leaving her husband lifetime usufruct.
The Heirs are as follows:
Her only son was left 1/2 of her community assets.
3 grandchildren were left the other half to be divided equally.

Within the deceased wifes will, were 3 certificates of deposit that were titled in her name OR one of the grandchildren. Example " Rita Hollingsworth OR Jeffery Hollingsworth III"
The usufructuary ( the surviving spouse) of course had use of these consumables and owned 1/2 of them. The CD's as a whole were valued at 100,000.00
One month later, the usufructuary gave, by manual gift, the three CD's to Jeffery Hollingsworth III.
Here they are yours.

In 1996, the usufructuary adds Jefferys name as an heir, AND the other three heirs names to an account vested in stocks and bonds , valued at 200,000.00. Same split. 1/2 for the only son, the other half for the three grandchildren ( Jeffery is a grandson)

26 years later the usufructuary dies.
The only son, claims that Jeffery already got his inheritance 26 years ago when the usufructuary gave him the CD's valued at 100,000.00

The executor to the the wifes will says , woah wait a minute.........he gave those cd's to Jeffery...........jeffery isnt responsible for that, furthermore if your father thought Jeffery had already gotten his inheritance , then why did he add his name to 200,000.00 worth of stocks and bonds 7 years after he gave him the cd's?
He then goes on to tell the only son, " If anyone is responsible for this, your fathers estate has to pay back your mothers estate because your father was the usufructuary and was responsible for his actions. He furthermore tells him, that as usufructuary, he certainly was within his rights and could give away said cd's since they are indeed consumables and half of them belonged to him anyway.

To make a long story short, Jefferys father wants him cut out of his grandmothers will.

what do you guys think?

Use and Enforcement: Easements

My question involves an easement in the state of: Pennsylvania

I am considering purchasing a property. This property and the property behind it used to be owned by the same family. The rear property is accessed by a driveway on the front property. there is no easement recorded. The property was divided into front and rear properties 29 years ago but the owners of the rear property have been there for about 4 years. If I purchase the front property, can I deny access to the owners of the rear property? I don't know if it has any impact or not, but the owners of the rear property are landlocked at that parcel, but they own, or their family owns, the adjoining empty parcel that could easily provide access to their property. We are not related to the people in the rear property and we are not on good terms. I am only considering this to increase my lot size because it adjoins my property on one side. There is a trailer on the front property but it will be torn down and possibly a garage built.

Thanks in advance.

Trespass: Selling a Home With an Encroaching Structure

My question involves real estate located in the State of: Texas
My wife and I purchased the house we live in 17 years ago, it was disclosed to us that the overhang of our carport is on our neighbors property (a little over 1 foot), it was not a problem for us or our lender and we have a good relationship with our neighbors (that property changed ownership since our house was purchased, but we still have no problems with our neighbors). Now we have decided that the house is too big for us since we are empty nesters and want to move to a smaller house, we signed a contract to sell our house to someone who is going to renovate and flip this house pending a new survey to find out exactly how much over the encroachment is, the survey from 17 years ago is hard to distinguish if it is 1.7 feet or 1.7 inches (more likely feet I'm thinking).
The buyer says if it is feet the deal could be off as it will result in lots of work for him to have to cut that much off of the eve of the carport and make it look right, I really don't want the deal to fall through so I am hoping for a resolution of the encroachment so that no work would have to be done to the eve, thus saving our buyer the cost of cutting back the overhang.
Can there be a solution where property line can be adjusted to the eve does not encroach the neighbors property?

Modification of Support: Can You Get a Temporary Order Reducing Child Support, Pending a Hearing

My question involves child support in the State of California:

I have been unemployed for almost three years. I have nowhere to live and no money. I finally got a job and have received an order from my employer stating that more than half of my net income will be taken to pay child support. Mind you I have only been working for three weeks. I am days away from living on the street and I have filed to have a hearing. The problem is that the hearing is not for two months and by that time I will have completely ran out of money. I am currently living in a motel that I can't afford even though it is the cheapest one I could get and I don't even eat every day.

Because of my living situation I will probably lose the job that took me almost three years to get and I will be completely homeless. My question is; is there something I can do to immediately lower or stop payments until the court date so that I can at least live?

If you can, please help me as I am desperate. I don't know what to do or who to turn to.

God bless you for your input.

Sincerely,
Down and out and can't get up.

Use and Enforcement: Easements-Three Landlocked Parcels and No Water

My question involves an easement in the state of:CA
I own three landlocked parcels in city limits w/ multifamily buildings -10 total units- built in 1960 with a well, going dry. There is a 350 foot Road Easement from the main road referred to in my title report but no one can find the original. There are electrical poles going down this road to my properties (as well as unmarked gas lines-coming from the main road somehow). The owner of the adjacent property has never developed it and is now trying to sell it and has refused to grant an easement, I expect because he thinks it will hurt his sale. Because the well went dry in 2014 (we dropped the pump 10 feet to the bottom and have water for now) the Ca. State Water Board was ready to hook me up to the city water but can't or won't because of the lack of an easement. Can I somehow use: 1)a prescriptive easement because of the telephone easement and possibly gas lines or;2) an Easement by Necessity ? Without water of course the land is way devalued which I believe is his plan to get me to sell, with him, to a potential developer. BTW the Planning Dept. wouldn't help, just said "good luck".

Arrest Warrants: Out of State Warrant Does Not Show Up in Home State

My question involves criminal law for the state of: GA/CA
My case involves a 4 year old out of state warrant for vop. This warrant is not present in my home states database. I have lived at this address as well been on SSI and on new probation in my current state for 3 years. I just received a letter telling me about this warrant. The PO said they just send out letters every couple of years to notify people of warrants. Does anyone know why it would not shop up in my state, be noticeable by my new PO or if it could be restricted to that state/county which filed it?

I am just interested in hearing opinions or scenarios that are comparable. Please do not respond with contacting the sheriffs office or an attorney.

Land Rights: Consideration and an Informal Lease Agreement

My question involves real estate located in the State of: Florida

Experts, speak to me of "Consideration," and how it would apply in an instance of a verbal/informally written lease agreement.

Our start-up company planned to lease a business space for a one year term. This space consisted of a smaller portion that traditionally is then subleased out to customers on a shorter term basis. (i.e.: Salon space and renting out chairs). Due to the perceived risk of our infant company, we formed an agreement with the owner wherein he would agree to lease us the space, provided we could substantiate our ability to afford the annual lease. The understanding was that we would do so by securing the sublease first, essentially "pre-leasing" the sublease space to one of our clients to guarantee the fund availability for the main lease. If/when this was validated by the owner and more importantly, his attorney, he would then grant us the lease. This agreement was discussed several times in person amongst other business partners, and particularly via e-mail where the owner requested a summary of the business plan and process to forward to his attorney for approval. (Subsequently, it was in fact approved, complete with a clause written in to the drafted lease granting the permission to sublease.)

Unfortunately, as we were awaiting the approval, an issue arose where our "legal" authorization and right to sublease the property was challenged, citing the fact that we did not have the annual lease in place before subleasing the space out, despite the agreement with the property owner. Adding to the mess, I currently have two different business attorneys telling me two different things; the first obviously being that one can clearly see based on all of the written communications with the property owner that we were well within our rights to proceed as we did. On the other hand, another very assured fellow saying that the only thing that matters to the Court is what the law says, and the law makes whatever agreement we had with the property owner an informal negotiation, not a binding agreement - based on the fact that there was NO CONSIDERATION, and therefore no title. He goes on to state that this consideration means money only, and because we had not gotten to the state of exchanging funds and signing the main lease, this will only end in defeat for us.

Having a difficult time believing that the property owner (who is a realtor himself) and his attorney would permit an agreement so far outside the law, I Googled "consideration" in the legal sense, and came up with the following legal definition: Something of value given or promised by one party for the promise of another. Valuable consideration can include money, work, performance, assets, a promise, or abstaining from an act. Additionally, the definition goes on to state that both "Valuable consideration" (money or a promise of something that can be measured in terms of money), and "Good consideration" (a promise that cannot be measured in terms of money, such as love and affection) are sufficient to enforce a contract; that the law typically does not concern itself with the fairness of consideration, that what is exchanged need not have the same measurable value, and that the law will accept that the parties thought the consideration to be fair because they freely agreed to the exchange.

Therefore, does the owner's promise to lease us the space in exchange for a) our promise to provide proof of a sublease/funds, and b) our promise to perform thereafter NOT constitute a valid form of Consideration? While no money had changed hands just YET, that was strictly due to the designated order of steps that had to be taken to be approved. Nevertheless, these promises were exchanged and acted upon with the intent of following through, right up until the point of challenge. Will a Court not recognize this?

Collection and Enforcement: Tax Refund Interception Received by DOR Recalled by IRS

My question involves child support in the State of: I recently spoke with the Florida department of revenue and found out that a tax refund that was seized for owed child support was received by the DOR then recalled by the IRS. I've called both the DOR and IRS and neither can give me a reason why it was taken back or an ETA in regards when it will be processed and returned to DOR. My ex is not married so there is no injuried spouse at play. She also doesn't seem too concerned with helping me figure out what's going on. I'm looking for some advice and/or direction. Is there any way I can find out what's going on with this seized refund? She received the "leftover" money from her refund in February. It's been over six months.

Thanks!

Establishing an Order: What Are the Possible Legal Issues from Having Children Around a New Love Interest

My apologies in advance if this should be in another subforum, but I thought this would be the most fitting place. So here is the situation: I am dating a woman with two children, ages 8 and 5, and have been for about 8 months. Now, her husband has moved out, sometime around the first part of January 2015, but they are still not at this time legally separated, nor have either of them consulted with an attorney about how to proceed. That issue is a different one entirely, so I won't get into any more than that. As of now, I have only met her children one time, and that was at the gym that she and I both attend, and it was done as if I were just her friend. We have never done anything remotely "intimate" (kissing, hugging, holding hands) in front of the children, and that has been at my insistence. Since the beginning of our relationship, I have insisted that I shouldn't meet her children under the pretense of she and I being romantically involved until she speaks to an attorney and finds out exactly what she can and cannot do around her kids, and who she can and cannot have around them while they are still legally married and eventually separated/divorced. I don't think I am wrong for insisting on that, but she won't talk to an attorney and ask them for a definitive answer. And seeing as how I can't speak to a lawyer on her behalf, I'm coming to this legal community for advice. Now, in my own mind, morality dictates that she and I keep our relationship just between us until there is at least a separation agreement in place that clearly defines the "rules" regarding having new boyfriends/girlfriends around the children. My question is this: Are there legal ramifications for having a romantic interest around children without the presence of a legal separation, and if so, what are those ramifications? I would like to be able to be around her children, seeing as how she and I have very little time together as it is. But I'm certainly not going to be around them if she or I could potentially face legal consequences, and most certainly not if it doesn't take into account the best interests of the children. Thank you for the advice, and if need be I can provide more information if it is needed. This is all taking place in North Carolina by the way. That's probably relevant.

Criminal Investigations: What Kind of Investigation

My question involves police conduct in the State of: Wisconsin


What appears to be be some kind of investigation going on..........against a person and her family

Some of these people involved in the investigation, have had driving offenses in the past, a driving instructor, neighbors, other people in town, numerous other people......

watching this person and her family for over 5 years now. Also a big computer program was launched on her.


The person who is being watched talked to several lawyers and one lawyer tried to help her find out who these people are. The other lawyers told her to report it to the

police, take license plate numbers and investigate it.

This person is also being watched outside of her county, at her job, shopping centers, etc. She is afraid that someone is telling lies about her on purpose, trying to get

into trouble for just about anything at all.


Would you have any ideas who could have had some kind of court order , filed a complaint , etc. to start this terrible program ?? Police ? Detectives ?

This person is not a drunk driver, drug user.....does not have any previous records with the police . Did not do any felonies or misdeamoners.

The local police said there is no warrant out on this person.


Thank You for any ideas.....

Computer Crime: Will This Charge Stick

I'm being charged with this:



What happened basically was I found an unused social networking site that allowed public posting without any posting limits. Then I wrote an application that would post again and again at maybe 10 posts a second. Anyway while that program was running I forgot about it and minimized it. After a day or two, after my internet was temporarily disabled by my ISP because of being reported, I noticed I still had it running and closed it.

The main thing that caught my attention about my charge is that it applies to when the action was committed without authorization. Since there was no security on the site, I was able to do something which I was given the access rights to do. That would seem like I had authorization. But there is nothing in our state statutes that define what "authorization" means. Based on the complaint I've read I'm not expecting there to be much of a disagreement on the facts of the event but instead interpretation of the law if this were to go to trial. Looking at what unauthorized access means on this site for example http://ift.tt/1X2sNkY makes it seem unclear in my case. I don't know if this law applies to me.

Traffic Accidents: Held Liable/Police Report

My question involves an injury that occurred in the state of: Wisconsin

Intersection car accident, lady who crossed the intersection had 2 tickets marked on the police report. It was recorded in one office of the police dept. as 2 tickets ( according
to someone who works at the police dept)

It went through the insurance companies as 2 tickets. This person was said to be at fault.

After the insurance claim was over ( lady who was not at fault was paid for her car damages) .......someone contacted the lady,s insurance co. who had paid out the damages,
and claimed that the lady who was at fault had only received one citation for the accident. It was corrected through the police dept.

This may have happened after the car accident was considered closed by the insurance co.'s


The lady who was not at fault, receives 0 citations for the accident.


The lady found out that there was a mistake made, went to the police dept, got the police reports and ended up contacting her insurance company, making corrections
according to the information that was recorded at the police dept. ( this was corrected through both insurance companies)

Could the lady who was not at fault and her insurance company be held liable in any way, by any mistakes made......if it was corrected after everything had passed through
both insurance co.,s and the dmv as 2 tickets on the police report.....even if this lady was said not to be at fault ?

Could the lady who was not at fault and her insurance co be fined in the courtroom for this mistake ? Could the police dept.?

Thank You

Speeding Tickets: Wrong Car Stopped - Can Receipt Timestamps Be Used As a Defense

My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: Florida

Hello Everyone,


I was issued a ticket for going over 30 mph over the speed limit (over 100mph) on Aligator Alley/ i-75.

I was not going this speed or anywhere close to it. I can only assume that the Radar picked up a different car.

• I have a time stamped receipt from a gas station and the first toll plaza.
• Google maps estimates the time from the gas station to the toll plaza as 18 to 20 minutes, my receipts show I took 19.
• Taking into account the distance between between the toll plaza and mm indicated on the ticket, as well as the time difference, my avg. speed from the toll plaza to where I was ticketed was about 3 over.
  
• If it makes a difference, my record for the past ten years is clean
  

Does this constitute a good defense or is this hopeless? At this speed a court appearance is mandated either way, I would just like to know if I have a legal leg to stand on.

Thank you in advance for any time and help that you may be able to offer.

Defamation: I Am Being Blackmailed Online

Im not sure if this is the right forum for this but here it goes. I was on a social media app when I was contacted from this guy who said his friend wanted to meet me. His "friend" was a very attractive young lady so of course it caught my interest. I agreed to meet but when I got there it was only the guy. He said that if I did not let him perform oral sex on me he would post some nude pics I had sent through kik messenger to what I thought was the girl in the photos he sent me. Not only Terrified of my friends and family seeing these photos, I knew the man owned a handgun from photos he had on his page and was afraid for my life, so I did the stupidest thing of my life and agreed to let him perform oral sex on me. I felt so ashamed. Now a year or so later he sends me a video of him performing oral sex on me and says that if I do not have sex with him he will send the video and texts to my friends and family and post them on a shaming website like thedirty.com. He said that if I have sex with him he will delete everything and I'll never hear from him again witch I don't believe for a second. Isn't this blackmail and defamation? Is there anything legally I can do? I would prefer to scare him off with some legal facts so that I don't have to actually take this to court and have the embarrassment of my friends and family finding out. Please help ASAP

Warranties: Used Vehicle Purchase, Significant Mech Issue, 30 Day Warranty

My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: MA

Timeline thus far:
Aug 19 Purchased $11,000 truck from Massachusetts licensed used vehicle dealer .
Aug 20 Registered at Motor Vehicle Dept.
Aug 24 Noticed issue with transmission after extended drive (1 hour each way) and approximately 300 miles since purchase, dropped at manufacturer dealership (Nissan) and notified used dealer (seller).
Aug 25 Picked vehicle up at Nissan dealer, service department diagnosed and confirmed faulty transmission, received printed quote for necessary repair.
Aug 25 Delivered copy of repair order to dealer (seller) representative and explained issue, awaited owner/manager's return on Thu.
Aug 28 Visited owner and explained issue in terms of (paraphrased) "I can afford/am able to fix minor issues and understand I purchased a used car at a fair price- but this is a significant repair I cannot manage alone. I will await your decision to repair or refund on Monday after your inspection of vehicle."
Aug 31 Planning to contact MA Atty General/Used Car Dept for additional advice

This purchase did include a 30 day/1250 mile warranty (MA dealers cannot sell a vehicle AS IS), signed by both parties (seller and buyer), with a $100 deductible. I've been very calm and understanding when talking to dealer about issue, open to either repair or refund without mentioning my inability to drive the vehicle and investing ~$300 in detailing, Nissan diagnostics, registration and a refundable sales tax of $700. I can tell the seller is becoming defensive/standoffish. My understanding of MA dealer regulation says that I am covered- vehicle needs to be repaired or my refund processed.

This is a link to the MA Consumer Guide/Used Vehicle Warranty Law. I am really looking for confirmation and/or additional advice from those more experienced than I am. I do appreciate any input and would like to express my thanks in advance.

Traffic Lights, Signs and Controls: Received Fta Notice Without Original Citation Mailed

My question involves a traffic ticket from the state of: California

I received a FTA notice that stated I had failed to appear in court. Apparently I had a VC 21453A (turn on red light) violation back in July, and I was supposed to appear in court early this month. So far, this is the only violation listed, but I don't know if things such as a warrant are supposed to come with the FTA, or if I have 10 days to go to court to explain myself.

The problem is I never received a citation or courtesy notice of the original violation. I did move to a new address at the beginning of July, but I had already gone to the post office to have all my mail forwarded to my new address. I also frequently check my mail, so I definitely did not miss it.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I really don't know what to do or say because I know that the judges don't accept any excuses for a FTA unless I was in a jail or hospital.

Social Security Issues: Early Retirement

I took early retirement because I was unable to work full-time as a nurse. I only work on a PRN basis and no hrs are guaranteed. I made over the straight across the boarder limit regardless of what you do mainly because of staffing shortages. I am sure if one isn't a nurse, then one can't understand how hard it can be when short staffed. So I made too much because I care.
Someone must have recognized that there might be exceptional cases because there are forms that can be submitted for Reconsideration and/ or Waiver for Overpayment decision. One form states " If you request Reconsideration within 60 days, we ( SSA) will suspend any withholding while the Overpayment decision is being reviewed. " I did that. I still have not been given a decision and though a supervisor did issue my checks for a couple months, this Mon after telling she would, she changed her mind. She knows my budget. She knows I need my SSA to meet my financial obligations such as rent, car payment, car insurance, gas , food....... So when she did that she rendered the above meaningless. She failed to live up to SSA own ruling and so the 15,750 limit is meaningless. They are just words on paper. Words without integrity are meaningless and holding my money is stealing from me. I want to file a formal complaint against this SSA employee but where or with whom ?

Collection and Enforcement: Can My Son Be Sued for Cp when He Turns 18 if He Was 13 when Child Was Concevied

My question involves child support in the State of: FL

A 19 yr old girl is claiming that my 15 yr old son is the father of her child. She has said that when he turns 18, she is going to hit him up for support. By my calculations of the infants age, my son would have been only 13 yrs old when they had sex. What is the statute of limitations on her getting in trouble for this and can she sue him for child support if the infant is his.

Unemployment Benefits: Would a Radical 401k Contribution Approach Make Me Inelligible for Unemployment

I just received notice that I can contribute up to 100% in my 401K. It is attractive to me now to do so because more can be contributed to a Roth 401K as opposed to a regular Roth IRA. A parent passed away recently and I can use some inherited money to live off of while I fully fund the Roth IRA with my job pay. But I need to know if they were to let me go, would this affect my unemployment benefit? I have enough inheritance to do this for 2 years. My pay check will only show after tax dollars going into a 401K as opposed to my bank. Since unemployment is based on an average pay over a period of time, will I be cutting off my nose to spite my face? In other words, would this action make me ineligible for unemployment or eligible for less unemployment? I think we need all the strategy possible to retire and not be broke in our economy. I work and live in Kentucky.

Service and Repair: Dealer Dropped Truck Off Lift. Options

My question involves a consumer law issue in the State of: New Jersey

2015 Silverado 2500 with 8500 miles on it was in for routine oil change (which is complimentary for first two years of trucks life)

Dropped the truck off the night before the scheduled service. Get a call the next morning from service department secretary saying there was an incident and the truck had fallen off of the lift in the shop. She says there is minor damage to the passenger rocker panel and box but the truck was road tested and safe to drive. The assistant service manager told us he wants to "do good by us" and get the truck repaired without insurance so that it wouldn't show up on carfax.

Since I thought that was sketchy, I said no and took it to a third party shop for inspection. After inspection they notify me of more damage that dealer said. Cracked tail light, damaged suspension component and other scratches etc.
When I went back to dealer to inform him, be promptly denied the damage was possibly associated with the truck falling "only three feet" from the lift.

I'm just trying to figure out what my options are as far as if the dealer is responsible for more than just fixing my brand new truck that will lose significant resale value. The damage to the rocker/box are significant even pinching the passenger door closed. I know the truck will never look perfect again. Am I just SOL and have to accept it being repaired? Can I sue them for a replacement? And just have to mention, the dealer was not apologetic at all, I would have to describe them as defensive and rude about the entire thing
Thanks in advance

Grounds for Eviction: Are These Squatters This is Bizarre - You Must Read

My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: MN

Sorry for this long story, but I think it is pertinent for you to hear: I rented out my secondary home in March of this year to John XY and Jill XY (and there 2 kids) for a lease term of one year. Right after paying the first month rent, John stopped paying rent. When I reminded John that rent is overdue, he contacted some support organizations (that help low-income), who in turn cut a check for rental on his behalf. Unfortunately, this became on-going till month of July. For month of August, John asked to break the lease since he cannot afford and will be moving out, and will pay rent for August whenever he is able to. That is John, since moving-in everything has been non-commital from him. Within my heart I was happy to see John leaving because during his stay the exterior looked terrible, John never mowed lawn (which by lease he is obligated to) and I had to take care of it because city started issuing me warnings after warnings. So I was in heart happy for him to leave, and so I asked him to vacate ASAP. Now John showed his second face to me, and starts to pass statement that while he is not living there but he might not leave immediately ...as he has too much stuff inside the home. We set some dates, that John did not follow through and then John totally dissappeared for a whole week. I feared my home abandoned and went to take a look of my house from inside. To my shock, the home was ransacked, holes in the walls, broken doors and windows, human and animal feces lying, marijuana or some kind of smoking smell, and 2 beds in EVERY room, INCLUDING basement (where living is specifically not permitted per lease). Realizing my home is totally trashed and is being used as hostel by many many families, I further learnt that John has been re-renting to families and collecting rent from them (apparently they all seem his relatives, and some of them estranged relatives) - ironically the rent he has been collecting he never passed on to me, and to pay me, he has been getting various organizations to cut checks to me (well till July at least ... it seems that ploy stopped working). And I suspect that John is in some pickle as well, he wants to leave but he has no control over the families that are living in the home right now.

Realizing the situation, I immediately filed an expedited unlawful detainer (to my best capability - which by the way aren't too great. I put the reason violation of lease, sub renting, destruction of property etc) and put the names of John XY, Jill XY, John Doe and Jane Doe (the unknown people). After that, I called the police to get some advice. The Deputy Sheriff told me that I can call in to city police for criminal trespassing and maybe the city police can throw them out. I did that, and when police came, unfortunately the home was empty. They told me to change the locks. I verified from them few times and in fact I told them that while I can do that for these unknown John Doe and Jane Doe, but I will be letting John XY and Jill XY know so they can get new keys. The police left, and as I was removing the locks (for re-keying), John Doe and Jane Doe and there many kids show up on front door and John Doe start aggresively confronting me - and using highly inappropriate language (like you f##ker suck my $ick and shut the $uck out and start watching yourself out now ...I think they were stoned or drugged and implicitly trying to make me afraid). I immediately called police - the same police, however after talking to John Doe and Jane Doe (who showed them one piece of mail in their name), the police now rather turns on me, and asks me to put the locks back. I seem stunned, questioned police, that it was you that asked me to do all this, to which police replied, 'and now we are asking you to put them back on' and to leave the families alone and contact Sherriff or Housing dept. I complied and left John Doe and Jane Doe and their entourage in the home.

So this is my story, please comment on what I did right or wrong, and feel free to be candid, I would rather hear the harsh truth and as a consequence be better prepared when the trial starts. Any tips you have, steps I need to take, I must take, or steps I need to watch, please advice. This is the first time, I am doing this, I am a recent college nerd who is out on his own, and I know too little of the world out ... this seemed too bizarre to me, I am in considerable shock at moment.

FYI: During short inspection of home, I discovered some names of the individuals, also that: a) John Doe has a currently suspended DL, b) John Doe has been convicted of a felony - a robbery, c) John Doe has been convicted of selling drugs. I dont know how this info is of any help to me. To my surprise police (that should have been interested in it) that came to my house were not interested in listening to me on it.

O.k. So I work for an online university teaching computer science. Well my cousin has been out of a job so I got him an offer to work here part time but it involves a background search through talent wise. (I know this because I had to do one when I got hired). He now thinks he has a warrant though he has never been arrested and he can not have a bench warrant as he never been delivered papers to go to court ( he lives here so I am aware of what mail is delivered) and I am beyond frustrated because he is not wanting to get the job because of the background check. Will a warrant show up if he has a background check done by then if he has one(which he is unsure of)

Protective Services: Emancipation

My question involves child abuse or neglect in the State of: oklahoma

I would like some help involving getting emancipated. I am 15, and, my mom doesn't physically abuse me. However she does emotionally. My dad sexually molested my sister in her earlier years. She is now 21, pregnant, and probably moving in with her boyfriend when he gets a house. My brother thinks he could have possibly been molested as well. I do not have a job as of now, but only because my parents will not let me. We go to a church where we do not doctor. No shots. Not even tylonal. I don't know if I could use that to my advantage or not. I do not wish to turn them in for molestation. I talked it over with my sister and she doesn't want to either. Unless of course we have no other choice. It goes against our beliefs. I understand you have to be 16 to get emancipated, but do I have a chance when I do? I go to school and get good grades, and my sister would like for me to move in with them. We would like to get my little brother as well, but not sure how to go about it yet. Please, no negativity. This is a serious matter. I would like some tips on what to do, and if it is even possible.

Repair and Maintenance: Flood from Above Due to Renovation

My question involves a condominium located in the State of: Georgia
Three weeks ago my daughter awakened from sleep with water pouring through her light fixtures in her bathroom-she has a ground floor unit. She immediately called her 24 hour condo security person, who after checking her unit, went upstairs and knocked on upstairs unit with no answer. After some time security found a key under the mat to the upstairs unit and entered, finding evidence the condo was under renovation--turns out new owner had not moved in yet. A large wall mirror (4 x 8) had fallen and sliced open the bathroom sink water lines. The double vanity had been removed which along with glue had previously supported the mirror. He eventually turned off the water to the entire twelve unit building. Water continued to drip into my daughter's condo for several hours. She called her large insurance company at 7 am and was told a claim handler would call her back who did at 4 pm. A water and disaster restoration company spent several days cutting out sheetrock, pulling up her wood floors and drying out the condo. Her kitchen cabinets, bathroom walls, double vanity and flooring in entire condo are a loss. There is some damage in every room. Her homeowners insurance coverage limit ($24,000-don't know why it's so low when the condo cost $80K several years ago) is two thirds of the actual structural loss estimate made by the insurance's adjuster. The upstairs homeowner has the same large insurance company. The company cut her a $24,000 check and has deemed that is all the money she will get from them on fixing the actual condo. The first contractor's bid is $40,000 and she still has to pay the restoration company. The Condo Assoc may get involved but so far their insurance adjuster has not appeared. I would think there would be some recourse against upstairs neighbor, her contractor and insurance company. Any ideas?

Use and Enforcement: Parking on a Shared Driveway for 30 Years, Can We Now Be Required to Move or Betowed

My question involves an easement in the state of:California

We own a home which shares a driveway with 2 other homes. All 3 properties have used the right side of the driveway as parking for 20+ years. (we have lived here/owned for 30) I will call my property "B" as reference.
Property "a", is now selling their home and it has barely come to our attention that they apparently own the full driveway and there was an easement from the 1970's/80s that states the driveway is for ingress and egress us. A city mapper told me that at first NEITHER A B or C could park there according to the easement, however we may have a perspective easement because they legally had 5 years to inform us that no one can park there (they have owned and parked here daily for approx 20 years). So now they have told us that we can no longer park there (properties B and C). After speaking to attorneys, I was informed that we indeed have a hostile easement and possibly perspective and implied.

I informed them that we indeed have every right to park now. so i have now received a letter stating that in a few days NO PARKING signs will be posted by property A and if any cars of B and C park there we will be towed. they stated that the city fire department advised them that the driveway is a "fire lane" which requires an unobstructed width of no less than 20 feet (ironically the exact size of the driveway width) and they claimed that the fire department had advised them to post the signage and that if we park there we will be in violation of Vehicle code 22500 (prohibiting parking in a fire lane) and that the fire department claims that the no parking requirement will be enforced by the city upon notice from the owners of the 3 properties.

I personally went to our local firestation who advised me that they have NOT received any information regarding this and that they ONLY require 13 feet clearance (which is the exact space left after the vehicles are parked there).
The firemen i spoke to said they felt it was incorrect information in the letter however told me to speak to the fire marshal next week. in fact.. they said that the letter we received does not even sound like it makes any sense and sounds more like a scare tactic. But my fear is that they WILL tow our cars and the city says they dont like to get involved in civil matters . The police said i could call them but they couldn't say for sure if the tow would be legal or not.


I am curios to know the following:
1. can they just suddenly , within days, post a notice and start towing?
2. after so many years of parking, do we in fact have a hostile, implied or perspective easement in place which would not allow them to tow our vehicles... at lleast until it is cleared in court or mediation etc?
3. what can i do right away to STOP any sudden action from taking place?

Also, i have chronic pain issues which would make it hard for me to get to my auto with my children if parked on the street (and steep hill) would there be any kind of handicap rule which would allow me to remain parked in front of my house as I am now?

Please can someone help me put something together with my legal rights . even if it is just a hostile easement? what can i do to stop or delay this?

I hope i am making sense here, if not i can answer questions. PLEASE HELP!

Police Conduct: Appropriate to Record Telephone Invterview with Investigating Lieu

My question involves police conduct in the State of: IL

Next week I will be receiving phone contact from the head Lieutenant of a police agency in a different state, to report a malicious assault to the groin, from a an ex-GF. I was hospitalized for this attack. Only issue is that I was presently under investigation by the same agency for a major crime during the time of the assault, and my defense lawyer suggested I have ZERO contact with law enforcement. Therefore, the crime was not reported until the investigation wrapped up about a year later, and nearly all charges were dropped. A large amount of money and resources were spent on this investigation, and the agency really does not like me and I've faced a huge amount of friction in my present attempts to report the assault, thus resulting in the Lieu taking over my case.... My fear, paranoid or not, is that my statements could be manipulated against me by the agency out of spite, and the whole situation could backfire on me resulting in charges against myself instead. My question is, in a sensitive situation such as this, would it be appropriate for me to ask the Lieu's permission to record the telephone conversation so that I can ensure the conversation is documented on both ends, just to cover my bases? Any thoughts? Strange situation, I know.

Minor in Possession: Can You Get a MIP Ticket for Somebody Else's Alcohol in Your Car

My question involves criminal law for the state of: CA

I Was at a concert in the parking lot tailgating before it started. Two officers were walking the parking making sure everything was fine. I had a beer in my hand and am not sure if they saw it because I put it behind me in the car before they walked over to our car. They walked to our car and saw that there was alcohol in the car that I was sitting on. It wasn't my alcohol as I was with other of age drinkers and they had possessed the alcohol. The officer started taking down my personal info and wrote me a ticket. He never asked if that was my alcohol nor if I had anything to drink tonight, he just immediately started writing me and another girl a ticket. There were other underage drinkers at the same tailgate and they didn't even question them or ask if they were drinking as well. My question is if I should fight it because the officer really had no proof it was my alcohol or if I was drinking it since he had never asked me. They were from a far so if they saw the can for all they know it could have been a diet coke.

Fences and Walls: Responsibility for a Retaining Wall on the Property Line

My question involves real estate located in the State of: Wisconsin - WI

Quick question if anyone knows about these types of laws in Wisconsin.

I have a railroad tie retaining wall on the high side of a hill that the neighbor, on the low side, wants the wall replaced. I am not the original owner of this house but this property was built with the wall at the time and as far as I understand the other property was built after this one. Does Wisconsin law require I pay for the entire replacement/repair or is it a shared expense if this is directly or immediately adjacent to the shared property line?

Repair and Maintenance: Mold and Tenant Rights: Compensation for Contents, Etc. and Expectations

My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: California
I informed my property mgr in July 2014 of a moldy smell when I moved in. In Oct 2014, I showed them white fury mold completely covering 2 pair of pants in my bedroom closet. The mgmt did not get a mold insp either time. Aug 9, 2015, I found at least 20 items, mostly in my bedrm closet, but all over my apt, with white mold. Again I showed my property mgmt & requested a mold insp. They ignored my requests. I told them I ordered my own mold insp, which prompted them to finally order one. Very high levels of Aspergillus/Penicillium mold was detected. I am currently in a temporary apt until one is available to move into. I asked about my content replacement & was told by the property mgr I would be compensated for the Oct items & new ones. She requested an itemized list, which I provided. I received a response a few days later stating I would continue to allow me to stay in the temporary apt rent-free until another apt is available and "pay for the [sic] all the dry cleaning, alternatively give a full refund of the security deposit if you elect to move out." Apparently, they don't feel responsible for replacing any of my mold-infested contents, but either way, I am not sleeping on the mattress and box-spring or futon mattress, nor am I going to dry-clean clothes with mold already on it. I'm not sure of my rights as a tenant as far as what the landlord is responsible for with regards to my belongings, or utilities that I am still paying at my original apt versus the utilities in my temporary apt that I did not setup in my name. The mgmt co put me in the model apt that is not typically used as a rental, so the utilities are in the name of the property mgmt co (I assume), but can they charge me for them?
Thank you in advance for whatever advice is provided.
